Make sure you consult with your doctor about this. Sometimes they may put him in a brace and let the hip joint scar in, making it tighter. If you do much PT initially you may not give it a chance to tighten and may actually stretch it out making it possible to dislocate again. If it is a result of a hip replacement, revision surgery is sometimes needed.

With a hip dislocation, you will have to work on strengthening the muscles around the area to try to prevent it from poping out again, in this case with physio you would start off with passive assited excercises/ then graduate to active resisted.
